World Tea Expo back in Las Vegas with focus on business
This year's World Tea Expo is to return to Las Vegas for a show accompanied by a strong educational program and many business-oriented activities. The leading specialty tea trade show in the US, held on June 15-17 at the Las Vegas Convention Center, will highlight a rapidly expanding US specialty tea industry driven by product innovation, increased retail presence and a growing number of tea professions. The business-oriented core conference and workshops will be supplemented by various tasting events that explore the various types and provenances of tea. World Tea Expo will also host the New Product and World Tea Awards, as well as the North American Tea championship. The event will be held under the auspices of new owners Penton, an information services company based in New York.
